OMG! 204..your as bad as me w/my dL's!
Let's Talk Turkey - Thanksgiving Edition
Have an apricot colored Xmas cactus with purple anthers--just finished blooming on one side--probably needs more light, we don't have much house plant natural light.
Yeah, and as bad as me with my DL's, too!

I have a bad case of episities.
Have you heard about this guy with the female robot?

I wonder if she knows how to divide dahlia tubers?
Notice this guy still lives with his parents.
Wren---where do you find your Christmas Cacti? It seems the nurseries around here have the same 3 colors!
I found mine at WM HD and ACE hardware you have to be there when they come in to find the good ones. There is a place here in Florida that sales cuttings I have not gone there yet but I will after the first of the year http://www.bobsmoleys.com/s-z.html
Interesting article, Victor. Robotics fascinate me. I loved the movie I Robot, with Will Smith. I think they did an excellent job of bringing that story to life.

I'm sure they will be common within our lifetime.
Only if they weed the garden & can tell the weeds apart from the plants.
They would have to be better than my last two yard guys Dumb and Dumber.
Thanks Wren for the link---some sound fantastic---looking to order when I return from FL in Feb.

Wren, your last yard guys are why I would be reluctant to hire anyone, even if I could afford it. I'm picky about how the gardening is done, mowing, weeding, etc. Don't think anyone would do it the way I want. I had someone weeding for me once. She was a very nice person, but wasn't thorough about weeding. Sigh!
Karen
These guys where really dumb. I had them weeding and the one I called Dumber ask if we could get weed killer and use it in the flower bed. I explained that the weed killer did not know the different between plants, then he asked why we couldn't get Dollar week killer and use it. I said "BECAUSE!!!!"
just for fun

Disturbing, bit not surprising (at least to me), news about Google.

Survivor winner is a man from Maine!!! Never thought i'd see it!! Doing a happy dance right now!!!

We are going to a solstice party to night.
Hostess has a conflict on the 21st.

YIPPEE solstice dancing!!! Can I come? I have a new interpretive dance this year 'The Emergence of the Bulbous Things".
I thought 'the emergence of the bulbous things' was called puberty.
Now why did I guess you would be all over that, hmm? Don't you have a snowman to knock over or something? ^_^
Hard to find one in 61 degree weather.
ARGH! I was INTENTIONALLY not reading the weather in the NE. -31F with wind chill. Yes that's F not C.
Yes - 'F' would immediately come to mind.
I hate to tell you that down here in the northeastern part of Florida it is 79F out my house.
Please send a tiny bit of that cold down here--just a tiny bit. About 10 degrees would be nice.
I am trying to build benches for my new green house.
I am ROARING!! Mom is wondering why. How can I tell her about the 'emergence of bulbous things?"
YIKES! that is c-c-c-old!. Currently it is 64. I was outside w/o a coat cleaning off the deck.
edited to say, but hot for you wren. Good luck with the building project.

I think it's time you had that talk with your mom, Jan...
The green/shade house will be done for this year-we plan on making changes as we feel our way next summer. The problem is it get to hot down here and I do not want cooked orchid cactus. LOL
Have run into a problem with the benches need to change the shelving material.

Victor, leave it up to you.....!
